Save Me, Estoril, Behind the Mask and throw Heart of Stone in there too.

Great stuff. And I've already said the same thing about Calumny and Northern Star a zillion times, but since she didn't write them, I wouldn't necessarily include them here.

Great, insightful points!

Christine was on her game with the batch of songs she gave to the Time album. Unfortunately it was a transitional period of the band where things were in a bit of a flux, so those songs were destined to fall into semi-obscurity.

If the context had been different, those songs would have a higher profile, and sit comfortably with the rest of her lauded song catalog.
